Useful for editing videos then seeing them as the viewer sees them.<br>
<br>
I found a big screen useful when working on something on a table. Hang the big screen on the wall at <br>
the other end of the table.<br>
<br>
For everything else, it was too big. I use a 32" and would look at something slightly bigger but not <br>
much. For people using reading glasses, there is a working visual range which limits the useful size <br>
of the screen.<br>
<br>
For writing, two vertical screens gives you one for your novel or program and the other at the side <br>
for email, todo lists, and code tests.<br>

Peter</blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yep, agree with Peter here re the glasses. I'm long sighted so I need to wear my glasses to work at my computer etc. </div><div><br></div><div>I bought a Dell 32" 4k curved monitor during a sale early last year but had to return it as the ppi at 139 was under a sweet spot that meant everything looked just slightly fuzzy to me. My eyes were constantly trying to focus it into sharpness and it gave me headaches. I think the magic number is about 160 ppi, any less and I find them difficult to use. Right now I'm sitting in front of my HP Z27 27" 4k that has 163 ppi. I can't see the pixels, everything is smooth and crisp. c.f with Apple retina displays that are crica 220 ppi.</div><div><br></div><div>I found overtime when using 2 x 24" monitors I was never using the full real estate of the individual monitors i.e. the outer 1/3 was unused, so I switched to a single 27" of higher resolution and adjust app window sizes to suit so I can have 2 - 3 things open and work effectively.</div><div><br></div><div>My 27" sits just out of arm's length and fill most of my FoV. I have my laptop sitting on a custom stand I made as a 2nd screen for things that don't require my attention.</div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div>Interesting to hear your perspective on ppi. I've got a Dell 32" 4K monitor (S3221QS) and I'm very happy with the pixel density. I do find it very hard to use a 1080p 24" monitor now as it just seems a bit fuzzy in comparison.<br></div></div>
</blockquote></div><br clear="all"><div><br></div><div>Yes it was a shame. I even tried it out on my PS4 thinking I could use it as a gaming monitor but the same issue, it was just that little bit fuzzy. I wonder in hindsight if it was that particular panel.</div><div><br></div><div>I have the same experience as you with 1080p 24" monitors. We've also got a 2k 27" in the study that my wife uses and I find that while that doesn't cause me any issues I no longer like using it.</div><div><br></div>-- <br><div dir="ltr">Colin Fee<br><a href="mailto:tfeccles@gmail.com" target="_blank">tfeccles@gmail.com</a></div></div>
